The starting point

At the onset of the PICT-project was a situational survey aimed at determining and documenting the prevailing understanding and inclusion of Intercultural Competence within postgraduate Translation programmes. The survey included both students and staff involved in postgraduate programmes in Translation which was carried out in various Higher Education institutions within each of six highly diverse member states of the EU. The survey also focused on how students and staff would like to see Intercultural Competence featuring in such programmes in the future.
